How it works
Get a taste for what TEFL really involves and impress employers with this 20-hour TEFL course! This course, held on weekends at locations across the UK and Ireland, is full of hands-on practical activities. Delivered by one of our experienced tutors, the course will take you through how to plan, prepare and deliver lessons that are engaging for all learner levels and age groups.
Full of fun and practical activities, this course will give you the confidence to write and deliver your own lesson plans. You will also have the chance to deliver your lessons to your peers during the two teaching practices sessions.
Please note: we recommend taking this course in combination with a 120-hour Premier Online or 168-hour Level Online TEFL course. With most employers requiring teachers to have completed a TEFL course consisting of at least 120 hours of study, this will ensure you’re in the best position for finding work.
